Man my computer struggled to export this 30+ minute video lol. Graphic glitches, messed up sound levels, but at least it didn’t outright fail this time. Usually I’d re-export, but I just want to move on with my life haha. Serious question, though. What do you think of those last 3 guitars? 😃
Going direct mount instead of using pickup rings would class up those Harley Benton customs, but they look great as they are. Curious if you’d be better off doing a custom with Thomann or 10S though. It seems like 10S is really trying to make a push for high value customs right now. The finish on your 7 string 10s LP looks amazing, I might have to order something similar from them
Spelled that wrong. The perfect PS controller is how it's spelled. I do like the Xbox controller, but the PS controller is just more suited to my hands.
I would get a six string of that agufish guitar in a heartbeat. Also kinda bummed those three harley benton guitars you teased I thought the natural finish looking one with fishmans had gold hardware
Everybody is asking about the guitars and amps and im here asking what guitar stand you use? Btw those Harley benton guitars looks amazing. And is it a pain to setup all of the guitars you own? or do you have someone for it?
And regarding the prototypes... No inlays looks better than block inlays, at least in my opinion... I'd also love to see truss rod adjustment being done at the neck heel, although that would mean binding wouldn't go all around the neck, which might trigger OCD for some people
No Hunter, thank *you*. Your style of riffing and honest reviews are a breath of fresh air and you've come a very long way from the old demos where there was no lead playing whatsoever. It always amazed me at the amount of production value your content has considering it's one guy in his bedroom doing this on his spare him. You get all of the respect and support. To answer your question: yes, that more purple-ish Harley Benton looks fucking fantastic.
I don't know if it's your amp or the pickups, but all your guitars sound the same.Is that intended or is it just a coincidence.Especially the humbucker guitars.Good sound.👍🎸😎✌
That 10S 7 string singlecut with a piezo, with the dual output jacks like the ec-1000p, would be a dream guitar. I'd shell out a grand for it in a heartbeat
Those HBs ! Great looking, so far away from the casual and quite basic look of the SC custom or SC1000 ! The purple and black just blew me away. Now, would it be possible to have it with 24 frets ?
Ever since I started working full time my guitar playing skills have gone in the trash. I've recently been trying to set time aside and actually practice. I'd love to be able to create content as good as yours and hope to make a living at it. If you got any tips I'd love to hear 😂 But yeah, always love your videos dude. Much love ❤😁
What's your thoughts on kiesel guitars? I bought my first one a few weeks back. A standard vanquish and loved it so much I sold my strat and ltd m-403 to pay for another build. An Osiris it will be my first headless but they are by far the best playing guitars I've ever owned and put my music Man stingray to shame so I was wondering what you think of them and maybe you could demo one sometime I'd love to hear your thoughts on them.
Nice setup man. I really dig the channel. Especially the buy cheap and mod approach on guitars, which I also practice. I advise nabbing a $200 Squire Affinity Jazzmaster. Seriously, just do it. I also sprung for the new Contemporary Jazz, but the Affinity is a no brain-er after a tuner swap, and honestly gets more play. I also have an Agile LP. It's been giving me fits lately, so it's mainly a C standard axe right now. No 335 style axes? Shame. If you ever want one I suggest Ibanez Artcore hands down for under $500. Like I said, I really dig the channel. You got me gassing for a Harley Benton now. lol! Cheers!
Do you allow your music to be shared on other RU-vid videos? If so, how would one go about putting that on our channels? I’d prefer when my channel does kick off to have the awesome heavy riffs you make on my channel giving you a plug every single time of course. Love the channel, one thing I don’t get...:how does this channel not have more subs? Your reviews are great! And I always watch every video until the end. Keep up the great work!
Awesome video hunter !! As for the agile prototypes .. I like the middle one the most .. Kinda interesting the Schecter Solo series style headstocks recessed control knobs, like the more traditional cutaways on them. Im not crazy about those striped wood tops but if they could do them in various ones like burl, quilt, flame or plain I definately could see them selling alot then. :)
I remember when I saw one of those G400 Custom w/Vibrola and I knew I had to have it. Spent some of my Graduation money on it and it became one of my main guitars for years. Wish I would of kept it but it wasnt getting played after I bought my Gibsons
Those Harley Bentons are totally a signature model proto! The one with the flamed neck has Fishmen PUs and a strange fishy logo on it 🧐 AND its a LP shape? Come on Agufish you arent fooling me
love the pink guitars there cool, yeah mate do the silly video extensive guitar cheap hardware would be interesting never seen that done wonder what the sounds going to be like mmm.
I'm in the market for a humbucker for my Fender Standard Strat for more versatility, but I'm set on Seymour Duncan. Duncan Distortion is probably gonna be the one to go in there.
That green HB is very cool if it had the recessed knobs that would be even cooler. That travel guitar is sick, if the price was right I would get that for sure.
If you did a HB Singlecut Signature with stainless steel frets and a chunky neck, i would buy it in a second, i think the seamfoam green one is the sickest
wait did i just hear 'steinberger' casually thrown in there? are... are they gonna actually *do* stuff with the steinberger brand again? or am i reading too much into that?
29:35 are those sigs??? PLEASE DO A 7 STRING!!!! preety please :D they look killer :D HB does a singlecut 7string but it is a fan fret so pups are also fanned which means not a lot of options for moding with after market pups so a non fanned HB SC would be.....SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY :D keep up the work dude keep this in mind and why not just mention this as a guitar to HB
At one point i owned over 17 guitars. Bought over 20 in total. Then i decided to ask myself which ones were really good and sell the others. Kept 7 guitars. Not the most expensive ones. But the best ones for sure. The ones that sound great even unplugged. Then i decided that i could only buy a new guitar if i sold one. Havent bought a guitar again for the last 10 years. There isn't a guitar in the world that can replace any of my perfect 7. A Mexican 50´s Strat w bare knuckles An American Highway strat w sensors A Korean SG knockoff w duncans A Japanese Burny w Wilde 500xl A Stock Japanese Telecaster A Custom shop Esp George Lynch A LTD Explorer with EMG's I worked for ernie ball, schecter, tried many fenders, custom shop instruments, charvel, signature guitars from all brands. I'm not saying my guitars are better, i'm saying if you try 10 strats, at any price, one will be spectacularly better than the others and that's the instruments you need to buy.
Okay, I would love to know what's up with those Harley Benton mystery guitars that you're trolling us with. That purple one tho! Seriously, what's the deal with Harley Benton? They have amazing specs for less than $500 ... so what am I missing? Are they just a knock-off brand who are trying to sell fake Les Pauls legally? Or are they legit? I'm skeptical. Tell me what's up with HB? Thanks for all the great videos.
Great.....now, after watching this video, I miss my Agile 3200 that I sold many years ago! Ugh! Agufish, after watching this video one things is very evident, you're wicked intelligent. Very talented as well. I think I'll subscribe!
Finally looking forward to getting a Harley Benton with a more rounded fretboard radius!! Also: Flamed Satin Set-in Maple Neck? yes please! As well as Fishman pickups! (would raise the price to minimum 600€ though, I think?)
Holy SHIT!!! Those 3 Harley Benton SC's damn i had a small guitgasm.. They look like the sc custom version but better. I hope they change it a little with the better SC550 neck. The sunken knobs look amazing. And both the blue and the purple stripey thingy look amazing. Fishman pickups... Ok i'm drewling now. (yes i am a hb fanboy) Dont know how i feel about the ugly angel on the head stock, hope they change that to a more traditional shapey thingy. And not sure if they should be matching. For the blue one it works, not sure on the purpley ones.
My 2 cents - For new HB SC i'm not sure. I think that you should decide for what customers are you selling a guitar and how many people would like to have them. If it "modern" then you should have something thin bodied like ml2 with (also) non-traditional colors and heavy/hard thin neck wood (like maple) neck and stainless steel frets . If it's for more traditional like buyers then you should put lighter body wood, keep dimensions and shapes closes as possible to original (a top carve also), keep mahogany neck, put ebony or better fingerboard and offer also a thicker neck profile.Stainless steel frets (maybe not jumbo) would do also ok If you offer 2 types of these guitars with decent hardware (that higher priced HB already have) from 350-450 euros, i think that you would be looking at big big potential. Moding it with better hardware is easy then.
So, for Christmas I got a Harley Benton HB-35+ and am so impressed with it I have been kicking around ordering an SC custom. Now, I'm just going to have to wait until those come out, if they sound nearly as good as they look they should be pretty killer and I'm sure, knowing Thomann, will be a crazy value.
If the 10s was under 1000 I would definitely consider it. In a 6 string. However dunno if you can get them in the EU. Also, I suspect the Harley Bentons are your signatures? I would love a blue one. With just one pickup, thanks :D
Your video made me visit the 10s website. Looks nice, but then pages run berserk, 404s all over the place, images not loading, links to Reverb not working/listing ended.... That's not encouraging, sadly.
Wiesel fuzz ditto looper soul food and cry baby Dunlop..are you still trying to sell? And also just spit ballin here but Ibanez DT 550 destroyer re issue from I think 2010-2015??? Do you know anything about them or how to get one that’s not like a thousand dollars or more ?
I've been debating buying one or two Harley Benton kit guitars because they're so cheap (really actually only about $20 less than the finished guitars...) but I also started looking into Buddha pickups, might be sold on those. Price is right and handmade is pretty cool. BTW, those 3 last singlecuts are beautiful.
Hunter, your videos are great, and relatable, so don't be so self-conscious about your set-up. Your bedroom studio and focus on gear that we can actually afford are what set you apart from other RU-vidrs who may have deeper pockets and more sponsors. We watch them for what they do, and I watch you and have become a patron because I like what you do. You take guitar seriously, unlike some of the goofballs who have a million subs, and that's another reason I prefer your channel. I actually picked up a Bill Kelliher signature LTD largely because of your review a couple years ago, and it has become my favorite guitar. So ... thanks. And keep it High Intergrity!
Drinks on the desk? Noooooo. Lol. All the best from downtown Liverpool lad. Nice one. ;) Listen to Fearless by Floyd for the Kop singalong. You'll never walk alone....
ok... so for full disclosure, I did not watch the entirety of the video before posting my previous comment. I am now paused on the portion where you are describing your sexy ass Tele.... Bro... if I play this video, and you are riffing with that 5150 type gain sound. I will have to unsubscribe, thumbs down, and maybe even report you to youtube for inappropriate behavior (j/k) just out of principle. Im hitting play again now... please for the love of god, I hope you arent about to do what I think you did.
Those new HB single cuts look sick, sort of like their 'high end' fusions, which I didn't really like as the whole suhr/superstrat type doesn't appeal to me. But this time it looks to be in SC shape, and postively mouth-watering. Nice headstocks too, with the wood from the back sort of curving over the front. Can't decide if I prefer the seafoam green or the red/purple woodgrain...
Hey man, I’m thinking of building a guitar and I was wondering what pickups were used in the 10S GF Vintage Relic SC? I really love the look of them and I would love to have a pair to use in my build!!
That custom 7-string. Fuck. Me. Running. What an axe! Never knew til recently that I’m a 7-string guy. According to friends i have banana hands that are made for extended range.
I went to Reverb and could not find your store, what is the name of your store? And yes good flex you have quite the collection of cool gear. The last three guitars were pretty cool, I've never played a Harley Benton to have a solid opinion but LP/Eclipse shape and Fishman pickups are a solid combination.
Ooooh boy, the darker red prototype Harley Benton SC (the one in the right), that's a sexy guitar if I ever saw one. If only they'd throw in OFR1000 like they have on their Custom VB FR and I'd be throwing money at them!
I want that Green/Aqua/ Teal Harley Benton with Fishmans! I must have that. I really hope they become production models! Thomann's, again with the win!
oh fuck yes! soo waiting to grab another SC from thoman for your signature! I say right purple body with green pickups and neck! block inlays 100%. didn't notice the heads... but where u at with those?
I had a Kramer 220 Assault plus for a few days...sadly the action wouldn’t adjust properly per my specs . Lost 45$ on a setup thru a guitar tech as he ran into the same problem with the truss rod. I’d love to had kept it but that issue prevented it. Surprised ya didn’t have a Jackson Monarkh in that mess.
The riff you played on the Epi is my favorite riff you have written thus far. I remember when you debuted it with the Marty Freidman Jackson. So fucking good.
hackintosh... logic works fine with it? im thinking of doing it to save desk space over buying a fucking imac thats just a useless screen hooked up to my gaming monitor
Logic works great, it's Adobe that generally has issues. And there are NVIDIA compatibility issues with the newest version of OS X. I wouldn't recommend it as your primary work rig because it's too unreliable, and there's no official support for it so if there's a problem, you're on your own, but as an audio rig for a hobbyist, it works great and is fun to put together if you're confident with computers.
@@agufish :( i heard sierra 10.4 works with nvidia but im scared.. if I always back up the worst that can come out of it would be a new powerful gaming rig by wiping/installing windows 10 again, but no way am i not trying this out first before i go dip $4k, just for a powerful monitor to sit on my desk 😋 thanks for the response! you are very inspirational
I really don’t remember how I came across you channel but I think it’s great! Your reviews and demos are legit! You’ve actually been a huge help in me deciding what I want in my own gear and guitars. The only major downside for me is very limited options because I’m left handed. Oh and those last three guitars look absolutely amazing! I’d be all over the white/cream colored one.
